Vegan for 6 months, Decided to get blood test done, Vitamins....

AWESOME! Good for you!!! I can't wait till I'm vegan (when I move out ) and then I get a blood test and show everyone the results. I also can't wait till I'm old enough to donate some healthy vego blood to people in need!

I had a low iron problem... until I went veg.
My iron (and everything else) is at a very healthy level now.

cool you can probs donate some then =D

1 in 3 need it....1 in 30 donate

i have no idea what my levels would be but i feel fine.

you dont take supplemts do you? . i havnt .

Thanks guys

I'm so glad that my levels are perfect, Just proves that being Vegan is good for you

I can't donate blood because I've had a tattoo recently, In the last 6 months.

Interesting thing I just found on the blood donating site.....

Abattoir Workers – I have worked at or visited an abattoir? Am I eligible to donate?

Anyone who works at an abattoir (including administrative staff) is eligible to donate blood, however only the plasma portion of your donation is able to be used. This restriction applies while working at an abattoir and for a period of twelve months after ceasing work at an abattoir.

Please note that simply visiting an abattoir does not result in your donation being restricted.



I wonder why???

Nice Kitty!

But....  not surprised. I think veg*ns get a bad rap, but if we eat healthy we won't be lacking in anything. And not to mention lowering chances of getting other diseases. Vegans rock!  

why wouldn't they say that?

Not DOING SOMETHING. is right up everyones lazy ass alley. don't have to pay for meat.. don't have to cook meat, cut meat, prepair it .. keep it.. use it.. eat it.

People are allll soo farken lazy... if they find out they had no reason to do it... then they wouldn't .. probably just say it by default 'you won't be healthy otherwise why am I eating animals lol'

Great news! I really should get a blood test to see if all my vitamin levels and everything are okay. Though I feel really good since being on a vegan diet, so hopefully they are

Out of curiosity do you take any vitamin tablets or anything like that?

I did buy some multi vitamins when I became Vegan but I  have only take a few, They make me feel sick, They smell fishy even tho  they are suitable for vegans... They are HUGE and green... LOL

I just try and eat healthy, Some day I am bad, VERY bad... Haha. Like a whole box of oreos and a whole box of BBQ shapes in one day...

Ah yes! Vitamins always seem to smell and taste gross. I have been vegan for around 7 months and haven't taken any supplements either. I do eat fortified foods most days and drink soy milk everyday though (I am mainly worried about not getting enough B12).

Haha I love oreos and am so glad that they are vegan...but when I nearly eat a whole packet I kind of wish that they weren't lol.
